You can thank Cricket Australia for that......never was the same bowler after he returned from India when he was in a Champions Trophy squad but didn't play a game!amber_fluid wrote:Cullen is worse than Beer.

It has been WA long before Langer got the job. It goes back to when Lawrie Sawle was chairman of selectors and gave clowns like Valetta 8 tests even though his highest test score was 38. WA have been having a dream run for about 40 years. Sure they have had some great players but they have had more duds play for Australia than the rest of the country put together.
Langer has just reinforced the WA bias.
If Patterson was from WA he would have been playing test by now.
Fair list of SA test duds of late like Sayers, Meenie, Ferg, Manou, Cullen, Tait etc. Not just WA who produce them!!
As for Patterson he doesn't convert enough 50's to 100's. Currently has 6 FC tons & 26 FC 50's. If he starts converting a few tons it wont be long till he is in the test team.

Good average and is in FORM,should be selected.
Atleast he gets to 50 which is certainly an improvement on the 20s that the current Aussie batsman make.

Spinners aside, I'd give John Hastings serious consideration as biggest spud to play a test for Australia in the 21st century.
